Hungry cat on the street collecting food scraps [Time 4 Cat]

Post by Amberz »

Hello!

I've been looking for this game for a couple hours now and haven't found a trace, and it's starting to really frustrate me haha, so any help is greatly appreciated.

It was a birds eye view, largely black and white (or muted colours) browser (probably) game with semi-realistic graphics where you controlled a cat on a busy footpath intersection in a city. The humans that crossed would only walk when you did, and the cat followed your mouse. You had a hunger metre that slowly depleted, and to top it up you had to collect the food scraps the humans sometimes dropped as they walked by. If you crossed paths with one it was game over, so it was a short game.

I played this a few times as a kid, about 10 years ago give or take a few, but the game may be older. I'm not even sure if it was in English. The only way I discovered games back then was on browser game collection sites like friv, so it was likely on one of those once if that's of any help. Happy to answer any questions, though my memory is limited.

Thank you for reading :)

We're not much into browser games from 2010s here but I believe you can look a Wayback Machine snapshots of friv.com from the time:

Ah, thank you so much, I'll ask there. I can't seem to get the friv wayback to work since adobe flash stopped. Thank you for your time!!

Oh my god you did!!!

Zwolf I owe you my life, I'd just about given up all hope of ever seeing this game again. Thank you ever so much, I'm so sorry came to the wrong place, with my relatively recent 2009 game enquiry, but thank you so so so much for helping me find it!!

You're all amazing people, thank you

Happy to help out, and in the bottom of the page at Mobygames there is a link to play it still, provided you have a Flash capable browser.
